A woman filmed vandalising 400 brand new cars with a boxcutter causing over GBP 300,000 in damage is being hunted by Mounties in Canada.

During a three-month spree, the woman targeted a specific car dealer in the city of Port Coquitlam, British Columbia, Canada.

Despite being caught on camera as she slashes the cars’ bodywork, the police are still baffled over her identity.

And it is unclear whether she has a grudge against the particular dealer or the Jeep, Chrysler, and Ram brands they sell.

CCTV footage released by police shows the woman wearing a hat and a facemask as she goes from vehicle to vehicle hacking at the bodywork with her razor-sharp tool.

Newsflash obtained a statement from the Royal Canadian Mounted Police dated 17th May saying: “Coquitlam RCMP is appealing for the public’s assistance in identifying the suspect of a mischief series at the Journey Chrysler Jeep Dodge and Ram dealership located at 1300 Dominion Avenue and the Journey Approved dealership located at 1881 Lougheed Highway in Port Coquitlam.

“Between January and April 2023, Police received three separate reports of mass car keying incidents at the Journey Chrysler car dealership in Port Coquitlam. Initial estimates indicate that close to 400 vehicles were damaged, including the exterior of one of the businesses resulting in over CAD 500,000 [GBP 300,00] in damage.”

Police believe the suspect is a woman aged between 40 and 50, with shoulder-length blonde hair and drives a Ford Escape, according to local media.
